Babies Everywhere!

Congratulations to our most excellent friends Sabrina and Chris who had their first baby on Monday February 19th (yesterday) at 9:32pm. Against the 98% of the human female population, Sabrina's water broke 11 days before her contractions started. She was pre-term which is why the doctors did not induce. She had antibiotics to keep the risk of infection down. But he finally arrived! Little Robert Christopher Hubert tried to make his way out naturally, but got stuck at 7 cms. They did an emergency c-section and Robbie was delivered. He's a very healthy 9 lbs 2 oz and 21 cms long. I hear he has hair and looks like his mommy. I will be visiting the family tomorrow and taking photos, so check back to see him.

Way to go guys!

Incidentally, Robbie's due date was March 17th, and Dhara and Elora's due date was March 20th. Kind of interesting that they were all born within a day of each other, even tho they were all earlier than expected! Chris and Sabrina are sure the doctor had the due date wrong tho. Imagine if he was right, how big Robbie would've been? Also of interest, Jake works with Chris, and they had a baby pool of which we won half, since someone guessed the 18th and we guessed the 20th. Yay for winning!

And yay for babies!! Babies Babies Everywhere!
